Hi, I'm trying to automatically have the dialplan assign an extension to a roaming phone on my network. I tried the following without success: exten => 3001,1(readop),BackGround(beep) exten => 3001,n,Read(digito,vm-youhave,3) exten => 3001,n,SayDigits(${digito}) exten => 3001,n,Set(ROAM=${digito}) exten => 3001,n,Set(DB(roam/ext)=${digito}) exten => 3001,n,play...

Hello All, I have a problem with my roaming profiles where they are becoming too large due to the Thunderbird mail accounts (stored by default) in Application Data. What I would like to do is exclude this directory from being part of the roaming profile. How can I do this? Also, how hard is it to have some users not use a roaming profile...

Good morning everyone. I wanted to ask the people on this list who are currently using roaming profiles with samba 3 how it is working? I worked a little with roaming profiles with 2.2.8a, but it was not working as well as I wanted it to and im hoping that samba 3 roaming profiles are working pretty well. Our network here is really calling for roaming profiles to be a major option here....

Hello everyone. I wanted to get some feedback and opinions from people regarding the use of Roaming profiles. originally, I was planning on using roaming profiles. However, I am starting to wonder if this is such a good idea. The reason is that, if I implement roaming profiles, there is a good chance that there will be network congestion as well as a lot of stress on the server. (50 users so...

I'm using Samba 3.0.22 on Ubuntu 6.06.1 as PDC for our Windows workstations. The passdb backend is tdbsam. I want to employ roaming profiles and due to the fact that we have a mixed Windows environment (Windows 2000 Pro and Windows XP Pro) I have the following entry in my smb.conf: logon path = \\%L\profiles\%U\%a Basically, this works fine. If a user is working on a W2k workstation, his roaming profile is stored under \\serv...

Hi, Just a quick question about Roaming Profiles : Is there a way to force Windows to use Roaming Profils only on the share network, and without local copy ? I set Roaming Profile on a samba share with a GPO, but some users have a big profile so login is very slow Thanks Tom

...hines had rebooted and were still active in the domain, users were logging in with no problem, shares were working perfectly - all over the span of a week or so - until last night. Trying to log into my wife's laptop (Vista Ultimate) under her account, I got an odd message that said "Your roaming profile was not completely synchronized. Please contact your administrator." The only problem is I am *not* using roaming profiles in my Samba domain! And this account had logged into the domain several times on this laptop with no problem after the migration. I looked on the home shares for...

Hello, I have a Samba 3.0.2a PDC that I have joined server Windows XP machines to. Joining the domain was painfully enough, but now I am having problems with roaming profiles. We initially thought the problem was intermittent, but we finally figured out that if the same user logs in again and again the roaming profile is found and login proceeds normally. When a second user attempts to login to the system the "cannot locate the server copy of your ro...

Hi Everyone, Does anybody use roaming profiles in domain level? I'm looking for helps for setting up Samba as a NT4 domain member to support roaming profiles for sharing during domain logon of Windows clients. I ran into the problems. log files couldn't show specified messages, except for BUFFER_TOO_SMALL. If a profile share...

Hello, I have a shiny new RHES4 box running Samba 3.0.10-1.4E (as included in the Red Hat distribution) which is set up as a domain controller, using openLDAP and the IdealX scripts. User PCs are Windows 2000 and XP. We would like to avoid roaming profiles altogether, so we set "logon path =" and "logon home =" (with no argument to the right of the equals sign) in smb.conf. We also went around to user Windows PCs and, from the System control panel, changed profiles from "roaming" to "local". However,...

Hello: I have a Redhat 7.3 samba server acting as a PDC and running samba 2.2.3a-13. I have a few computers with extensive existing profiles and I want to know if anyone knows of a good way to get the COMPLETE profile to the roaming profile on the samba server. Every manual copy way that I have tried thus far has failed miserably. Thanks, A Cline _________________________________________________________________ Add photos to your e-mail with MSN 8.

Hey everyone. We have two offices accessing the same Samba server, which is a PDC and file server. The server is located in one of the offices, but the other office is only connected by a relatively slow link (1.5 megabit/s). I'm looking for a way to turn off roaming profiles only for those users which are at the remote site. (It's a tad inconvenient when it takes an hour or two to login due to a 1 GB roaming profile!) I could turn roaming profiles off for everyone, but we do have some users here at the same site as the server who don't have their own...

Hi, are there any know problems with f-secure scanner and roaming profiles? We have a lot of users with problems syncing their roaming profile from the domain server. It seems to be a problem with f-secure's on-access scanning (may be timeout problem?). Some users have to login three or four times, before getting their roaming profile and not the default prof...

Recent list messages got me thinking... Is there a way to support both local and roaming profile with one server / domain? As I understand it, the "magic" line that tells Samba not to do roaming profiles is the smb.conf line: logon path = Which the line must exist, and must be set to null. But that is in the global section. So is there a way to support both local and...

FreeBSD 5.1-RELEASE Hi, I'm examining Biba and MLS MAC policies and something is not clear for me. Unless I'm doing something wrong, it seems policies are enforced only for reading, but not writing. 1) Biba I've created test file with biba/127 label: $ echo "Message" > file_biba_127.txt $ setfmac biba/127 file_biba_127.txt $ getfmac file_biba_127.txt

...t name" say tom, on the server. Now he logs on into his machine(no samba till now), as 'tom' but will be able to get/use the profile he created, when he was logging in as "administrator". Later on i installed the samba server for domain logon with local profile. I disabled roaming profile for both windows 9x, 2000, Xp machines by setting logon path= logon home= Even then when he logs in as 'tom' to join the domain, instead of using the local profile(which was as "administrator" b4, later on 'tom', its creating a temporary localprofile. I woul...

Hello list, I am facing an issue which I cannot explain myself. The roaming profiles don't work for users that are members of the group "Domain Admins". The [profiles] share on the member server was configured exactly as explained on the wiki for roaming profiles. It works like a charm for all domain users, *BUT*: if a user is member of the group "Domain...

Greetings to everybody! Is there any way to turn off roaming profiles and use only local ones? In our company each of us connects to domain from its own workstation, so as I can see there's no need in roaming profiles. Why I'm asking such weird question? Because with roaming profiles Windows clients has readonly profiles! With Policy Editor I...
